Re: [WSG] List Item Background Disappearing in IE
Oh, also IE doesnt like images under 1k in size. Try to make your
bullets a little over 1k and see if that does the trick.

I have an unordered list using css to load/position a graphical bullet point.
ul li {background:transparent url(images/li_sprite.gif) no-repeat 0 0}
It works fine across the board until the text within the li/li wraps.
At this point the bullet disappears in IE5 and up (and Opera).
Adding a colour to the background (let's say white #fff) certainly fixes the
problem.
ul li {background:#fff url(images/li_sprite.gif) no-repeat 0 0}
But in this particular instance I can't use a background colour (hence transparent)
and I've exhausted all my options. Im not alone in the world:

If you do so, you'll need to recheck validity on a regular basis. In which case, you should do the validating locally, rather than burden the W3C's systems. Also, what happens it the home page validates, but not one of the deeper pages? Or on a 1000 page site, one page has a minor error, while 999 are 100%? * The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help *
RE: [WSG] :before Pseudo Element
Hi,
Well your code in the examples you've given is inconsistent. In the first
post you open a p tag but close with /P. If you're using XHTML, it is
case sensitive and does not see these two as connected. Also in the CSS
example, you've put a capital P. This may be the problem. Try changing it
to:
p class=dialogueBlah blah blah/p
p.dialogue:before {
content: - ; /* Note that the browser will not convert an Ascii
code, just write the literal content you want. */
}
This works in Firefox and Opera as far as I can tell.

[WSG] IE linked image border grief
Hi all,
I have the following rules (amongst many):
a { text-decoration: none; }
a:link { border-bottom: 1px dotted black; }
a:visited { ... }
a:hover { ... }
No surprises so far -- it's a classic dotted border on links. The
problem I have is that IE displays the dotted bottom border on images
that contain no text, I guess that's a reasonable thing, and maybe not
a bug, but it's a pain in the ***.
If we had *ascendant* selectors, my problem would be solved, but we
don't:
imga{ border:0; }
Bowman stopdesign.com solves the problem with a 'noline' class on his
linked image tags, but in this case, I can't edit the source of the
image tag, as it's auto-generated by the CMS. Bugger.
Searching Google for this is pretty much hopeless (the keywords are too
generic), so here I am, begging the WSG for some help :)

Re: [WSG] [THREAD CLOSED] Re: web standards related rss feeds?
Hi Neerav I think this is an excellent idea I've got lots of great feeds that I'd like to share I'm sure others do to. The reason I'm closing it is because I don't think the list is the best place for this resource - I'd like to find somewhere more permanent on the site for it. I'm going to either open up a discussion for this or create resource section on the site for it - will post back here asap with the details.

Re: [WSG] Re: web standards related rss feeds?
Hey All I've creaked a Standards related feeds category in the resources on section on the site - http://webstandardsgroup.org/resources/#cat32. Feel free to add links to RSS Atom feeds there. I've taken the liberty of adding the ones already posted to this thread under the names of those who posted them.

RE: [WSG] Formatting a list
I asked for help too early, I found it myself now. Had to add a width to the sub-menu ul and li Any improvements on the css still welcome! greetz -- Willemot Michaël http://www.sotto.be -Oorspronkelijk bericht- Van: Willemot Michaël [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Verzonden: donderdag 24 juni 2004 4:43 Aan: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Onderwerp: [WSG] Formatting a list Hi, I'm having troubles getting my list [1] layed out correctly in Iexplore. I started from a listamatic example [2], but somehow managed to get it broken in iexplore while adding css to hide not curPage lvl2 ul's. The effect I get in firefox is what I'd like to have in iexplore too: - Hovering the Contact Us (in big, orange) *not* giving the hover-image - the current submenu shown horizontally Help appreciated, I'm kind of new to css-positioning and am struggling too long with this already.

[WSG] Accessability testing
Hi - does anyone still use Bobby these days? I ask because we really have only used: Cynthia Says - Web Content Accessibility Report (http://www.contentquality.com/) On a site we are developing we pass all Checklist items up to and including Priority 3 Verification with Cynthia, however our client is testing using Bobby and Usablenet, stating these are the 'industry standard'. Is this the case? If not could anyone hit me with a nice list objective comparison?
